just to give a bit more input here: I've been using the cache for a while now and never cleared it manually after the unified directory structure came to be. With several games, Wine (without nine) and various Superpositions runs (different quality settings) – btw big thanks to the whole AMD team: I'm seeing 4043 points at 2560×1440 with medium quality settings and 2805 points with high settings in that benchmark! – I just hit 133 MB as displayed by "du -hs" as of today. Granted, there are a couple more MB for the user running the desktop environment and the display manager, but last time I checked that was about 12 MB. And I should probably add that there are certainly stale cache files in there, since I've rebuilt Mesa and LLVM several times. Anyway a limit of 1 GB sounds fine by me. Cheers, Kai
